1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Although a number of standardized human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) pseudoviruses have been generated to assess neutralizing antibodies, subtype B/B' has not been comprehensively characterized either genotypically or phenotypically. Full-length env genes were isolated from plasma samples derived from B/B'-infected individuals, including former plasma donors and men who had sex with men. The neutralization properties of these pseudoviruses were determined by testing against sCD4, 16 neutralizing monoclonal antibodies and 44 plasma samples, including samples from those infected with the three major prevalent clades in China. Twenty-eight pseudoviruses were successfully constructed, including 15 B' and 13 B strains. Compared with subtype B strains from North America and Europe, the B' strains from China showed greater variation in the V3 loop and higher susceptibility to the neutralizing antibody 2F5 and B/B' plasma samples. The B' strains from China showed significantly lower susceptibility to some trimer apex-binding neutralizing antibodies (PGT145, CH01, CH02, CH03, and CH04) than the B strains from Western countries. The 28 B-pseudotyped and B'-pseudotyped viruses were grouped into high, medium, and low clusters based on their overall neutralization sensitivity to plasma samples. The different genotypic and phenotypic properties of the standard subtype B from those of the Western viruses compared to the B and B' strains from China suggest that clones from HIV-1-infected individuals in China are more suitable for the evaluation of candidate vaccines targeting the subtype B/B' viruses circulating in China.
